Description
Dong Xue and twelve co-authors study how forty-five years of fertilizing changed soil life in a long-running farm trial in China, in a research paper from 2025. The trial compares nitrogen alone, a mixed chemical fertilizer, manure, and a blend of manure with chemicals. The crop is faba bean.
Manure-based treatments raised soil organic matter and nutrients most, and boosted bean yield well above the chemical-only plots. They also raised the activity of soil enzymes that free nutrients for plants. Gene tests showed different microbe groups thriving under each regime. The authors link enzyme activity, gene patterns, and soil fertility into one picture of how long-term feeding shapes soil.
